I have Cricket as my cell phone carrier. I ordered an iPhone 7+ from them a couple weeks ago. They told me that Apple has sold out of them and it will be a few more weeks before I get it. I'm wondering if anyone on here would know if it's possible to get a new one elsewhere that would be compatible with Cricket. I don't want used or refurbished. Thanks.

The 7+ I believe is an unlocked phone you should be able to purchase one anywhere that sells them and then just put a cricket mobile SIM card in it. Note I mean anywhere other than another carrier. Walmart Best Buy or even Apple directly they should all be the same price. Just make sure it is unlocked then take it to cricket and have them put a SIM card in and you should be good to go.

Isn’t the 7+ out of production now that the 8 has been out for a while? There should be no problem finding an iphone 8.

If you can wait until AFTER Apple’s big media event on September 12, you will probably get a better deal. That’s when they introduce new phones.

I haven't been able to find one anywhere near my area so far. I have checked many places.

I've checked all those stores around here and they don't have any.

When I search for Apple stores, all I get are stores that carry iphones for their network. Could you possibly send me information about where you got yours? Maybe they would do mail order. Thank you.
